so pushing the 2x button (so that it is lit) turns off upsampling?

Lit = on and upsampling. The documentation was wrong earlier. Not sure if they have fixed it yet.

The easiest way to confirm - your CPU usage should be quite a bit higher with upsampling turned on.

thanks!

Sorry to bump an old thread, but is there  a way yet to enable upsampling for ProChannel FX yet?
 
 

also - what does this mean and how do I achieve it?
 
"Review your plugins and synths and make sure any 32-bit plugins you are bridging in are set to load in jBridge"
 
Thank you!

Far as I can fathom it's oversampling which isn't quite the same thing as absolute double sample rate. I tend think of it like upscaling a DVD movie to 1080i on a Bluray player. It's certainly sharper than a standard DVD playback but not quite as fluid as the Bluray playback.
 
I think you will notice a difference with x2 when you channel it through an analogue whether it be virtual or hardware where musical distortion is applied.

I meant like a 'reasonable way', like in the GUI.   We shouldn't have to resort to doing those steps just to enable upsampling plugins, especially since there is a way for FX not in the ProChannel.

I wouldn't expect to hear any difference from upsampling ProChannel plugins, with a possible exception being the FET compressor at super-fast attack times.
 
Remember, the main benefit of oversampling is to raise the Nyquist frequency, making aliasing is less likely. The only plugins that need that treatment are those that might generate new frequencies above Nyquist. For the most part, that means amp sims and distortion plugins.

And basically all synths will benefit, how much a little depending on frequency content.
A subbass sine maybe not audible.
 
Sample based synth with content like strings certainly audible, often one sample resampled a couple of times, not every note pitch is recorded. To resample rich frequency content so every harmonic is properly moved is hard to do.
Every pitch of a note will have less aliasing done at double samplerate, and then downsampled again.
 
As even one synth is audible difference, and what this does to a full mix with 5-10 synths is substantial.
